    Its easy to understand why he wouldn't return as exciting as he was he lost every time he stepped up to fight quality opponents. One of the most entertaining journeyman to lace them up in the sport.

      Remember, he fought Floyd twice. Thats good ppv kickback even at a low rate and that doesn't include his money from Argentina's tv networks. Argentina is also known as a beautiful place to retire on the inexpensive side and Chino is a country dude. Thurman and these guys havent seen that kind of money quite yet. 1.5 guarantee + ppv + argentine kickbacks in the first fight and doubled that in the rematch. It's not the 6mil Bradley made but Bradley took three beat downs lol. Rios got his s hit pushed in. Jmm has been making great money for a long time now so thats an unfair comparison lol

        Maidana isn't a journeymen, far from it. Maidana's a good, unorthodox fighter.

            I'm just upset because Maidana at his best gives everyone hell.

            So many potential great fights but I guess that's it.

                Broner/Chino was probably one of the most entertaining fights in recent boxing history. Both fighters can be credited for making it so. It's all mental for these types of fighters as they're not the most skilful. They enter the ring brimming with confidence as if to say I don't give a hoot who you are and I'm going to kick your ass.

                  Him having a kid and then watching his countrymen almost lose an eye, yeah he's pretty much done. And I agree, he gives everyone hell.

                  Maidana-Broner put boxing back on the map, one of the best fights of recent years.

                      The millions that he has made will probably last him two lifetimes. He looks like he is pretty frugal and lives a simple lifestyle.
